Respite care services provide a break from caregiving responsibilities for a family (informal) caregiver of an individual with special health care needs, so they may recharge. This guide has been developed as a resource to families, respite care providers and case managers. Though every effort has been made to ensure all the following information is accurate, some sections may be out of date or inadvertently incorrect. Respite care may not be available in all areas of Colorado or for all special healthcare needs.

THANK YOU! The creation of this guide has been made possible by Rose Community Foundation, which makes grants to organizations and institutions serving the seven-county Greater Denver community in the areas of Aging, Child and Family Development, Education, Health and Jewish Life.
